View Full Version : 2005 Legacy's are in!!
Getagrip 05-13-2004, 08:23 PM Yep, they are here. Look very nice and are becoming a little more upscale. I like the fact that some of the plastics feel a little rubbery on the surface (like BMW and Audi ect). I haven't had much time to comment on much else as i spent about 30 seconds looking at them. I'll go back out as time allows (busy at work).
SQUAD_907 05-13-2004, 08:52 PM nice...gonna have to go check out what could possibly be my new car! how many and what colors!?! :confused: pls say the some manuals! :D
eurojax 05-13-2004, 08:56 PM I have to go get some touchup paint, I'll definitely have to check them out.

Yes, there were some manuals. There were Outbacks and just Legacys, and no turbos:( I wrote up about 15-20 cars for PDI today.
eurojax 05-13-2004, 11:26 PM Me and Trevor just went and looked at the 05 Outback. He went and got a tour of the other ones, I had to get paint and pick up my girlfriend or I would have gone.
The 05 Outback is GIGANTIC. It looks like a small SUV now. :huh:
trevman2 05-13-2004, 11:31 PM 05 Outback looks comparable to an Audi Allroad. :eek: is what I did when I saw the first one. It is sweet. The Legacy looks cool, but they only had 1 and it was a wagon. Also had 1 05 WRX sedan. I dig the new headlights, and despise the new interior. Looks very gimicky (if that is a word). Has a new tailpipe, single tip, too. It was worth the trip to just see the new Outback.
RallyX13 05-13-2004, 11:57 PM Someone needs to get some pics, or I could just take my lazy butt down there.:D
So many cars to choose from, Forester XT, Legacy GT, Saab 9-2X, should be a redesigned Impreza out in 2007, maybe something will come of the B11S and B9 concepts. To many decisions.
JordyB 05-14-2004, 02:58 AM SAABARU IS MINE...
garmin 05-14-2004, 03:45 AM Saw them today on the truck pass by the offsite sale... look awesome... :eek:
Getagrip 05-14-2004, 04:08 AM I like the dual pipes on the new Legacy. I was also lookin under the hood....alot more room in there. They hid the washer bottle in the fender area and the battery is farther out and cocked at an angle.
Headlights are cool, too..........projectors finally!

JordyB 05-14-2004, 05:03 AM Once they bring it up...ill be looking to finance...for 1K more then a WRX, id spend the money to be original and still have a WRX...
AK_2002_WRX 05-14-2004, 05:08 AM theres an 05 WRX already:huh:
anyone know if the 05 STi will have anything new? still wanting an STi:)
SparkysJDMSpeedWagon 05-14-2004, 05:48 AM AK_2002_WRX, the 05's have slightly different rear fenders (if you compare pics, you'll notice), also seats are slightly different (better side support), and it has a new bolt pattern; 5x114.3 instead of 5x100, so it has the same pattern as the Evo does. The also offer a new color, called something like Crystal Silver Metallic, or something like that, it's a little bit darker with a sort of blue flake on it. They also added two cupholders, next to the e-brake. Irvine Subaru posted a thread last month when they received their first shipment (Cali always gets the cool stuff first :lol:); here's their thread

I have no idea what the 05 WRX is like...I heard something about Subaru adding AVCS to the WRX's, since all the STi's already have it. That would suck for those (very few) of us that have 04 WRX's :furious:
Getagrip 05-15-2004, 05:13 AM Spent a little more time with the new Legacy. Sunroof on the wagons is GIGANTIC! I was also under the car and noted the rear mount of the front lower control arms are multi-axial. Now I gotta drive one as see how the steeing and cornering feels.
Unfortunately the Sport-shift autos are still only 4 speeds
The GT is coming with a 5 speed auto isn't it?
AK_2002_WRX 05-15-2004, 05:55 AM you ****ing own Sparky:banana:

AK_2002_WRX 05-15-2004, 05:57 AM can't wait till we get em....now if i can only graduate faster:mad:
besides changes in the looks, the rear control arms and links have been changed as well, based off of the 04 forester....stereo is going to be standard i believe, and is better than the ones the cars come with now.
damn..i can't wait....:D
